Are those 14 actual kills? Very nice picture.. After the B-17G the Corsair is my favorite plane.

Some people might rant about not having a full rotation of the propeller but I personally feel that the partial propeller in this image adds more to the character of the image. Technical this image is fabulous. 2 things to look at - buildings on the left could be more out of focus (DOF) and the tip of the wing is clipped (also on the left). But that aside, I love this image! Well done.

I am not that technically minded but from what I do understand, I agree fully. What a wonderful capture.

Superb overall and you got the shutter speed spot on so the propeller is caught in motion.
